This prodgect was to research and write about an italian icon, the symbol i chose was Farrari. Why i cose Farrari well i think Ferrari really represents italy for example every time you see a Ferrari you think of Italy and the fast and the furious movies but mostly Italy. When the symbol is used is when a person is driving a Ferrari. What Ferrari means to me is somthing quick, fast, strong and also elegant. To me the signifigance of the symbol is virility (strong, the alfa male).Here is some information an some background about the company and its founder. The Ferrari brand was in vented by a man named Enzo Ferrari, founded in 1929 as Scuderia Ferrari. The company sponsered drivers and manufactured race cars before moving into productoin of street-legal vehicals. Ferraris first car was the 125 s sports/racing model. Enzo Ferrari was born in Modena italy on the 18th of febuary and died on the 14th of august 1988 in maranello italy. Ever since Enzo was little he had a passion and a want to race fast cars. though Enzos first job was at a small car company called CMN or Costruzioni Meccaniche Nazionali. Then after that enzo started work for Alfa romao racing their cars in local races. From there Enzo only got better wining more races and titles and in 1929 createing Scuderia Ferrari as the racing team for Alfa. Although the support of alfa romeo lasted until 1933 when alfa was going through some finacial problems. Though Enzo Ferrari did not need alfa for sucsess. Today Ferrari is an international symbol, icon and prestege performance vehical by which others are often mesured.
